Chapter 301: Shocked, I wish everyone a happy new year(1/2)
"Guess which dish was cooked by you?" After hearing this, Mr. Yu looked at the dishes on the table. He had just made some guesses before, but now there was a lot of surprise on his face. His wife's cooking skills were not as good as his.
He knows, and he has been eating the dishes cooked by He Hui for most of his life. How could he not know which ones were cooked by his wife?
After Grandma He finished speaking, she first stopped her wife from speaking. She wanted Zhang Fangyuan to guess first.
Speaking of which, Zhang Fangyuan has a good relationship with their family. Zhang Fangyuan often went here when he was filming documentaries, and every time he returned to Yangzhou from a business trip, he would bring some specialties from other places.
Not to mention, if he had enough time, he would stay here and play chess with Mr. Yu.
But when Zhang Fangyuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little difficult. To be honest, he had eaten a lot of dishes cooked by He Hui, but it was really hard to distinguish between the dishes in front of him.
These dishes all look delicious and delicious.
But at this time he was asked, Zhang Fangyuan scanned the table, and then pointed at a basket next to him: "This! Aunt He must not have made this!"
I saw that Zhang Fangyuan was pointing to the basket of strawberries.
"Haha, you are so naughty. If you want to guess this, you have to guess which of the two washed it."
Zhang Fangyuan also became interested for a while. He looked at Chen Nian and An Hongdou. Their hands had been washed, which meant that both of them had helped. But it was obviously impossible for two people to wash a basket of strawberries.
So the other person must be helping with washing and chopping vegetables.
At this time, he suddenly thought of An Hongdou's previous invitation to invite him to dinner. In this case, An Hongdou should indeed be better at cooking, and although Chen Nian often gave him advice during meals for a while, that was not the case.
It's just talk on paper, not to mention there are many comments in it that Zhang Fangyuan doesn't agree with at all.
"Then I guess these strawberries are aged and washed. Hongdou will help you wash and chop the vegetables."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions on the three people's faces did not change. He Hui nodded and continued to ask: "Then, of these next dishes, guess which one is made by me?"
There are six dishes on the dinner table, stir-fried shrimps, soy sauce tofu, fish-flavored shredded pork, stir-fried vegetables, potato stewed beef and a West Lake beef soup.
In terms of difficulty, it is definitely easier to stir-fry vegetables, tofu, soup and shrimp.
This is also what Chen Nian and others have in mind.
But after waiting for about ten seconds, Zhang Fangyuan said his answer: "This fish-flavored shredded pork is definitely not made by you, grandma, and the soy sauce tofu should not be made by you, although you didn't say that you had a total of
I have cooked several dishes, but I still feel that this West Lake Beef Soup is not made by you."
When Zhang Fangyuan said the first two sentences, the three of them were shocked because these two dishes were indeed not made by He Hui. But when they heard the last dish, they felt relieved again.
The other party is just relying on guesswork and observation.
"Why?"
"Because I guess Aunt He will think that I will let them do the easy guessing, and leave the difficult ones to you. But I thought again, if it was so easy to guess, you might not let me speak.
.”
After hearing this, Chen Nian felt that what he said seemed to make sense.
"So this fish-flavored shredded pork dish is definitely not made by you. As for the other two dishes, I guessed it."
"Okay, then tell me, since I didn't cook these three dishes, then who did they?"
"I think it's made of red beans."
He Hui nodded after hearing this: "Okay, what about you, old man? Which dish do you think is my cooking?"
After hearing this, Yu Fuchun sighed: "We have lived our whole lives, and now you ask me to guess these things. If Xiao Zhang can guess wrong, how can I still guess wrong?"
"You made the vegetable stewed beef and the soup, and the rest is definitely not you. However, it is also my first time to meet this little girl and Xiao Chen, but I think the rest of the dishes should also be made by Xiao An. Although
It’s not like Xiao Chen can’t cook, but I think it’s better for a girl to cook.”
As soon as the words fell, the faces of the three of them showed smiles.
"It seems that the old man knows me well. These three dishes were all made by me, and the other three were not made by me. Xiao Zhang's guess was also good, so he guessed two wrong dishes."
"Then the remaining three dishes..."
Then An Hongdou said with a smile: "Only the strawberries are made by me, the rest are made by aging."
This answer surprised everyone.
What Zhang Fangyuan was thinking was that Chen Nian could actually cook?
But in this case, what Chen Nian said before wouldn't it be...
No, no, even so, it doesn't mean that the level of aging has reached the level where you can casually comment on the chefs of restaurants you approve of.
But at this moment, An Hongdou looked at the surprised expressions of the two and couldn't help laughing: "Teacher Yu, Director Zhang, do you think that Chen Nian specializes in singing Kun Opera? Even if he doesn't specialize in Kun Opera, he is still engaged in related industries.
?”
"Isn't it?" Zhang Fangyuan asked doubtfully.
"Hahaha, of course not. You would never guess that Chen Nian is actually a chef and has a restaurant of his own in Chengdu."
At this time, Chen Nian also continued: "Yes, I am indeed just a chef, and I am not lying when I said that Kun Opera is just my hobby. Moreover, no one in my family is engaged in opera-related industries.
"
"How is this possible? You obviously..." Zhang Fangyuan's face was full of disbelief. With the singing voice and figure that Chen Nian showed during the filming, if he were to be a cook, that Zhang Fangyuan would never want to
To believe.
"Director Zhang, don't you find it unbelievable? When I found out that Chen Nian can sing Kunqu Opera, I was just as shocked as you. After all, the crossover between chef and Huadan is so big that it is unimaginable. But even if
It is also very good for cooking and aging. You can go online
If you search, you should be able to find a lot of videos related to Chen Nian... And Mr. Liu probably didn't tell you that the co-writer of the song "My Wensi Tofu" is also Chen Nian, and my song was also written by him.
I created it after trying Wensi Tofu in my shop.”
Zhang Fangyuan only felt that his three views had been subverted. Isn't a chef the kind of profession that spends all day in the kitchen with iron pots and oil fumes? Even chefs in some high-end restaurants are inevitably like this.
Moreover, cooking is considered manual labor, and chefs are basically big-bodied and round-waisted. Even if they don’t look like much on the surface, their arms must be thicker than others. Like Chen Nian, he has a well-proportioned figure, and both men’s and women’s clothing have a unique flavor.
"So you are the world-destroying general, the Mecha Tyrannosaurus?"
"It's me. In fact, I just wanted to cook at first, but then customers spontaneously helped me spread the word. Later, I met Hongdou by chance in the store. During that time, Hongdou composed a song based on Wensi Tofu.
"Later, I just made some suggestions on the lyrics, and Hongdou wanted to add my name. I don't like to get too many people's attention, so I used a pseudonym." Chen Nian explained.
"Then in fact, the reason why our crew signed a confidentiality agreement because of your identity is because of this?"
"Probably." Chen Nian nodded, "Mr. Liu is a very nice person. I didn't expect him to agree to this condition before."
Even though he said this, Zhang Fangyuan still felt very magical, but looking at An Hongdou's uncontrollable smile, he also realized something in his heart: "Hongdou, you said you wanted to treat me to dinner before, are you going to let Chen Lai come over?"
Do?"
"Yes." An Hongdou readily admitted.
"You two..." Zhang Fangyuan sighed, feeling that he might have mistakenly blamed Chen Nian before.
However, he did not take out his mobile phone to search the Internet now. Instead, after chatting for a few words, he naturally changed the topic back to Yu Fuchun.
While the meal was starting, Chen Nian also used his chopsticks to taste the fish-flavored shredded pork he had made. To be honest, among these dishes, fish-flavored shredded pork was Chen Nian's first time to try it, but he also liked it.
The dish is quite promising.
After all, I had eaten this dish in an Internet celebrity restaurant in Chengdu before. That restaurant was also known as a time-honored restaurant, but I was disappointed after eating it.
This time I tried my own fish-flavored shredded pork. No matter what, it tasted better than the one from that restaurant. After entering the mouth, the sour, sweet and spicy flavors took turns to attack, and the soft and chewy shredded pork was given a youthful flavor.
Vitality, but this is not a flamboyant rebellion, but a youthful tolerance for embracing all rivers.
Even elderly people like Teacher Yu and Grandma He will not feel any effort in eating it.
Although there is a hint of spiciness in it, the two elders, who are from Jiangnan, do not find it difficult to eat, but find it very delicious.
Moreover, the shredded bamboo shoots and fungus are also wrapped in the same sauce as the shredded pork, but the texture is completely different. The fungus is not over-fried, and it does not taste hard but crispy.
As for shredded bamboo shoots, an ingredient that would be particularly difficult to chew if not cooked properly, it is also aged very well. As long as you bite it gently with your teeth, it will break with a snap.
The taste is unbeatable!
But with the same age, we know that this dish still has flaws. The reason why the fish-flavored shredded pork is called fish-flavored shredded pork is because the spicy pepper used in this dish actually needs to be made with fish in advance.
Although the taste of this dish is similar to that sold outside, in the final analysis it still lacks the most soulful thing, which is just not something that most people can eat.
Chen Nian took a look at the recipe, and sure enough, the progress of this dish was only 85%, which shows the importance of fish-flavored spicy food to this dish.
But being able to make it like this is considered very good in the field of home cooking. After all, no one in ordinary people's homes would spend so much time making fish-flavored spicy food.
After the meal was finished, Chen Nian An Hongdou and He Hui went to the kitchen to wash the dishes again, but this time Chen Nian became the main force. An Hongdou also rushed to take the dishes washed by Chen Nian and wiped them with a rag.
Wipe away water stains.
Instead, He Hui just stood aside with nothing to do, and then kept chatting with Chen Nian and the others.
She didn't want to rest like this and leave the work to the young people, mainly because these two children were too enthusiastic!
This is too flattering.
"Oh, grandma likes young people like you. You are here for work this time. If you come to Yangzhou to play in the future, you must tell grandma. Grandma's legs and feet are still good, and she will take you out to play.
"
"Don't worry, grandma, we will definitely come to disturb you when the time comes."
To be continued...
